I try to start it remotely and it fires once but does not start, then it will not try a second time, is there anyway to change that setting, it is a factory remote start

Maybe an intermittent neutral safety switch? The vibration of the first start locks it out?
I dunno, never owned a remote start vehicle.

The remote start has to simulate having a key in the ignition, and the "fires once but does not start" sounds like the security system isn't seeing the remote start as a valid key. They can be a pain to repair in the shop; and the Subaru computer is needed to program the key. I think your going to need to take it to the dealer.
Check the wire to the coil, if it doesn't see the ignition signal it won't fire. It's been a while since I installed one in a 06 but if it's a canadian car, I believe that programming the key wasn't until later models.
